SCHAMU M. MOSCHCOWITZ, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

COMBINED PATTERN AND FABRIC.

ESPECIFICA'I'ION forming part of Letters Patent No. 327,961, datedOctober 6, 1885.

Application filed August 11, 1883. Serial No. 103,502. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, SCHAMU M. Moscnoo- WITZ, a citizen of the UnitedStates, residing at New York, in the county and State of New York, haveinvented new and useful Improvements in Combined Patterns and Fabrics,of which the following is a specification.

My invention consists in printing, stamping, or otherwise indicatingupon a web of paper, patterns of any article of wearingapparel, androlling said paper upon a web of the fabric from which the articles areto be manufactured, the two being attached at intervals in any suitablemanner, so that the paper may be easily removed from the material whenrequired.

The purpose of my invention is to avoid printing upon the fabric itself,certain materials, such as silks, serges, &c., being ill adapted forthat purpose; to effect an economy of the material by the judiciousarrangement of the patterns; to enable the articles to be out accordingto the grain or thread of the fabric, and to provide an extremely cheappattern-web which is attached to and sold with the goods, and by whichthe latter are kept clean.

Referring to the drawings forming part of this specification, Figure lis a plan view of the paper web with patterns printed, indented, orotherwise indicated thereon. Fig. 2 is a similar view, showing thepattern web rolled upon the fabric.

A in said drawings represents a web of paper having delineated thereonin any suitable manner patterns of various articles of apparel. Theouter or heavier lines, a, indicate the margin of each pattern where thesame are to be cut, and the inner and lighter dotted lines show wherethe seam is to be made, and one or both of these lines may be traced ortransferred from the pattern web to the material by means of atracing-wheel before cutting.

In the drawings I have shown one method only of delineating the patternupon the paper web, but it is evident that this may be done in avarietyof ways without affecting my invention. For example, the outlines may beperforated or indented, or those portions of the web surrounding theseveral patterns may be shaded, leaving the body of each other words,unshaded.

B indicates the fabric upon which the pattern-web is laid, the two beingrolled up together. The pattern-web A may be fastened at intervals tothe fabric B in any suitable manner, so that when the goods are sold thepattern-web and the fabric are out from the entire roll together.

The pattern-web is printed from a cylinder which, at each revolution,repeats the same series of patterns, the arrangement of the severalpatterns being such as to give the greatest possible economy ofmaterial, and at the same time to permit the c.oth to be out accordingto its grain or thread, which is a matter of importance.

Myinvention is particularly adapted to the manufacture of shirts, thepatterns of the several partsbeing delineated upon the paper web androlled up with the material in the manner described.

I am aware that it is not new to print patterns upon lining fabricsbasted to the material and sold with it; but in such cases the purchasermust buy the lining as well as the goods, and in the many cases in whichlinings are not used, or in which the purchaser is already providedtherewith, it is evident that such a pattern-web gnot available. By myinvention, however, i ffirnish an inexpensive pattern, by which economyof material is secured, the fabric is out according to the grain, andthe goods are protected from soiling. The pattern may be reproduced uponthe material by a tracing-wheel before cutting, or the line of the samemay be so traced and the pattern then cut with the goods, after whichthe former may be easily detached and thrown.

awa

I m aware that it is old to make a roll of shirting with patterns of theseveral parts of a shirt; also, that it has been proposed to perforatethe pattern of several part-s of a garment through a sheet of materialand use the pattern by laying the same upon the cloth to be cut, andthen applying a powder or liquid to the surface of the pattern, so thatit will pass through the perforations to the cloth, the

pattern beingthen removed for future use, and said fabric, the two websbeing attached at so that the cloth can be out according to theintervals and rolled up together, substantially marking thus applied. Myinvention differs as and for the purposes described. therefrom in theparticulars hereinbefore fully In testimony whereof I have hereunto set5 described and specified in the following claim. my hand in thepresence of two subscribing I 5 Having thus described my invention, whatwitnesses.
